Meet Jessie
Jessie Lillis is a Philadelphia-based classically trained actor and director. Building on her extensive background in movement and textual analysis, she is always looking for ways to marry the body and the voice to serve storytelling. Jessie received her MFA from Mary Baldwin University’s Shakespeare and Performance program, in partnership with the American Shakespeare Center in Staunton, VA. Jessie is also the Producing Artistic Director of Starling Shakespeare Company, which she co-founded in 2020. Find out more about Starling Shakespeare Company here. In her free time, Jessie can be found catching up on the latest sci-fi/fantasy novels or at the park with her dogs.
What is she up to?
Jessie spent the summer of 2023 on tour throughout the Midwest and at the Mackinac Island Shakespeare Festival with Starling Shakespeare! Find out more about the festival here!
